Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk have committed their futures to Liverpool, but how did the club convince them to stay? And will that persuade Trent Alexander-Arnold to snub Real Madrid?

Arne Slot has provided an update on the contract situation of Trent Alexander-Arnold after the club tied down Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk to new deals. Liverpool have been pushing to renew Alexander-Arnold’s contract all season with the 26-year-old’s current deal expiring in the summer.

Virgil van Dijk has joined Mohamed Salah in signing a new contract with Liverpool. Van Dijk’s deal was due to expire at the end of the season but the Netherlands center back has penned a new, two-year contract.
